Using AI/ML To Combat Cyberattacks
By John Koon - 09 May, 2024 - Comments: 0

Machine learning is being used by hackers to find weaknesses in chips and systems, but it also is starting to be used to prevent breaches by pinpointing hardware and software design flaws. To make this work, machine learning (ML) must be trained to identify vulnerabilities, both in hardware and software. With proper training, ML can detect cyber threats and prevent them from accessing critic... » read more

Overcoming Chiplet Integration Challenges With Adaptability
By Jayson Bethurem - 09 May, 2024 - Comments: 0

Chiplets are exploding in popularity due to key benefits such as lower cost, lower power, higher performance and greater flexibility to meet specific market requirements. More importantly, chiplets can reduce time-to-market, thus decreasing time-to-revenue! Heterogeneous and modular SoC design can accelerate innovation and adaptation for many companies. What’s not to like about chiplets? Well... » read more

You can integrate an FPGA in an SoC at full speed and flexibility. Until EFLX eFPGA, it was not possible to integrate full-speed, high-density FPGA in an SoC. Now you can. Click here to read more. » read more

Adapting To Evolving IC Requirements
By Ed Sperling - 07 May, 2024 - Comments: 0

As chip designs become increasingly heterogeneous and domain-specific, packing a device with one-size-fits-all chips or chiplets doesn't make sense. The key is rightsizing different components based on real workloads, so they don't waste power when there is too little utilization of logic, and so they don't struggle to complete tasks because they are undersized. Jayson Bethurem, vice president ... » read more

Fundamental Issues In Computer Vision Still Unresolved
By Karen Heyman - 02 May, 2024 - Comments: 1

Given computer vision’s place as the cornerstone of an increasing number of applications from ADAS to medical diagnosis and robotics, it is critical that its weak points be mitigated, such as the ability to identify corner cases or if algorithms are trained on shallow datasets. While well-known bloopers are often the result of human decisions, there are also fundamental technical issues that ... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review
By The SE Staff - 12 Apr, 2024 - Comments: 0

Applied Materials may scale back or cancel its $4 billion new Silicon Valley R&D facility in light of the U.S. government's recent announcement to reduce funding for construction, modernization, or expansion of semiconductor research and development (R&D) facilities in the United States, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. TSMC could receive up to $6.6 billion in direct funding... » read more

Quantum Computing Challenged By Security, Error Correction
By Karen Heyman - 04 Apr, 2024 - Comments: 0

The number and volume of warnings about a post-quantum cryptography (PQC) world are rising, as governments, banks, and other entities prepare for a rash of compromised data and untrustworthy digital signatures. Exactly when this will become a genuine threat is still somewhat fuzzy, because it depends on progress in developing robust qubits. A report by McKinsey & Co. estimates that by 20... » read more

Maximize SoC Compatibility With Flexible Pre- And Post-Processing
By Jayson Bethurem - 04 Apr, 2024 - Comments: 0

Building ASICs and custom ICs (integrated circuits) is becoming increasingly challenging. To create successful products with long-lasting market impact, it's essential for the critical IP to be differentiated by performance, power, and features. It is difficult to predict and design for every potential application, especially considering each application has unique interfaces and processing req... » read more

Early STEM Education Key To Growing Future Chip Workforce
By Liz Allan - 25 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 4

A key factor in building a domestic workforce for the chip industry is attracting kids to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) subjects at a younger age. That way they are more likely to follow through and attain the skills and degrees needed to enter the semiconductor job market. Industry and government are partnering with schools and community organizations to address the chal... » read more

Chip Industry Week In Review
By The SE Staff - 22 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

By Adam Kovac, Gregory Haley, and Liz Allan. The U.S. government released a 61-page report, titled "National Strategy on Microelectronics Research,” by the Subcommittee On Microelectronics Leadership. It provides a framework for government, industry, academia, and international allies to address four major goals. Synopsys  acquired Intrinsic ID, which develops physical unclonable func... » read more
